C++ Topic Difficulties

We have yet to learn the following topics for the final exam, and we only have 4 lectures to do so:

- structures
- classes
- constructors
- pointers (copy constructor, this pointer)
- operator overloading

I'm just worried that it's a lot to cover in only 7-8 hours.
How would you guys rate the difficulty compared to what I have learned?:

- control flow
- functions
- parameters / overloading
- arrays
- strings (C strings, C++ strings)
- pointers

Is this a C++ class or a C/C++ combo?

IT's a C++ class, though we learn a little from C.

Any one of them is.

About equal, though your ability to learn can change that. Different people learn different ways.

Go for the basics and the terminology. Listen carefully to the lecturer in order to pick up what he or she is harping on. That's what he or she thinks is important, and that's probably what the test will cover. You'll have to learn the rest later.

This is my last C++ class Just want to pass it. My first midterm, I bombed. This final is more comprehensive, and I was just hoping that the topics I have yet to learned isn't too hard.

It's odd to have a C++ class that waits until the end to cover classes...
